John Obi Mikel Slams Enzo Fernandez Over Chelsea Future Doubts

Former Chelsea captain John Obi Mikel has criticised Enzo Fernandez after the Argentine questioned his long-term future at Stamford Bridge. Fernandez told ESPN Argentina he is unsure following the club’s 3-0 loss to PSG, which sealed an 8-2 aggregate exit from the Champions League. The 25-year-old also stirred debate by praising Madrid in a LuzuTV interview, likening it to Buenos Aires. He insisted his immediate focus remains on the Premier League, the FA Cup and the upcoming World Cup. On his Obi One podcast, Mikel labelled those comments unworthy of a leader. He warned that no player should be bigger than the club and said that if Fernandez has lost motivation, he should “put your hands up and f— off.” Despite the fallout, Fernandez is enjoying his most productive campaign with 12 goals and six assists across all competitions.
